I think one or two died, but not because of the cold. They're outside in a big pot, and the hottest zone of my backyard next to the nanners, and looking pretty good.

Wink Re: "Amythest Beautyberry" shrub...

My beautyberry shrubs have been pushed down to the ground, flat as pancakes, from the weight of the heavy wet snow.


Some of the branches broke off too so I brought them inside...

Talking Re: "Amythest Beautyberry" shrub...

Very true Zac!


The roots are still intact.


Guess I just had my heart set on a beautiful Winter show this year. The shrubs are not totally destroyed though and in fact today I noticed they are starting to spring back into their position before the snow fell.


Only some of the branches broke off, but luckily not all of them.

Wink Re: "Amythest Beautyberry" shrub...

I collected some seeds from within the tiny purple berries last fall and here's a seedling sprouted from one of the seeds...





I covered the soil lightly and kept it moist. They took about 2 weeks to germinate and this was one of the seedlings I kept.
